I am M.Sc. student in the Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Bilkent University advised by Prof. Suleyman Serdar Kozat. My bachelor is in the same department and university. I also work as a full time Data Scientist at Databoss company. My research focuses on Spatio-temporal series forecasting including weather prediction and event prediction. With my research group, we develop deep learning tools for time series prediction. Besides, I worked on Natural Language Processing projects including Named Entity Recognition and Sentiment detection.
